The units in timer API should be independent from PCM. So use the explicit type such as __u64 here (so that you don't need the compat ioctl conversion, too).

We often put some reserved fields for future extension. But I'm not sure whether it's needed at this time for this kind of simple interface, though.

Once after adding the new API, don't forget to bump the protocol version defined in SNDRV_TIMER_VERSION.

A sanity check is definitely needed for parameters like this. e.g. you'd hit a zero-division Oops with this code. Also, the resolution should be neither too small nor too high.

no_free_ptr() is used only for the automatic cleanup stuff.

Better to keep -ENOTTY?
